Let's Play videos only exist because publishers allow them to. They aren't fair use. They could drop the DMCA hammer tomorrow but they don't because it makes them money. Edit: obviously I'm not supporting this but this i

Brave has a history of acting shady. For a while they would take BAT "donations" for any website, and would just keep them unless the site owner signed up to receive them. This stopped a few months ago. The whole monetization mode

Yeah I have a friend who had a math degree, taught CS and math. She got exposure to actual software dev work, realized how much better a job it is and eventually left teaching.

AdNauseum is the an act of protest and a tool at once. Yes it compromises on privacy compared to just plain adblock. But if it hides all ads anyway, does it matter if nobody is making money off of you? The noise that the ad-clicking introdu
